Feedback:
Triangulation is the process of using multiple referents to draw conclusions about what constitutes the truth. This includes data triangulation (using multiple data sources to validate conclusions) and method triangulation (using multiple methods to collect data about the same phenomenon). There are three types of data triangulation: time, space, and person. Strategies for enhancing quality during the coding and analysis of qualitative data include investigator triangulation (independent coding and analysis of some of the data by two or more researchers) and theory triangulation (use of competing theories or hypotheses in the analysis and interpretation of data).
